sms.net.bd NuGet Package Release Note

New Update smsnetbd.Csharp.Client v2.0.0

We are excited to announce the release of version 2.0.0 of the smsnetbd.Csharp.Client NuGet package! This update introduces several significant enhancements and new features to streamline your SMS campaign management and broaden platform support.

New Features

1. Supports a wide range of .NET platform compatibility

To ensure compatibility across all .NET platforms, we've added support for .NET Standard 2.0. This enhancement allows developers to integrate the SMSNetBD.CSharp.Client package into a wide range of .NET applications, including those targeting .NET Framework, .NET Core, Xamarin, and more.

2. Get All Approved Campaign Content List

We have introduced a new method that allows you to retrieve a list of all approved campaign content available in your account. This feature enables you to easily manage and review the content before initiating any SMS campaigns.

3. Send SMS Campaign Content via sms.net.bd API

The latest update also includes a method to send SMS campaign content directly through the sms.net.bd API. This method leverages the campaign content ID to ensure accurate and targeted messaging to your audience.

How to Use the New Features

1. Initializing the SMS Service

To begin, initialize the SMS service with your API key:

// Initialize SMS client with your API key
SMS smsClient = new SMS("your-api-key");

2. Get All Approved Campaign Content List

You can now retrieve the list of all approved campaign content by calling the GetCampaigns method. This method sends a GET request to the API and returns a list of campaign content in JSON format.

string campaigns = await smsClient.GetCampaigns();
Console.WriteLine(campaigns);

3. Send SMS Campaign Content

To send an SMS campaign using one of the approved contents, use the CampaignSMS method. This method finds the campaign content by its ID and sends the corresponding SMS to the specified phone number.

string phoneNumber = "01XXXXXXXXX";
string contentId = "XXXXX"; // ID of the approved campaign content

string response = await smsClient.CampaignSMS(phoneNumber, contentId);
Console.WriteLine(response);

We appreciate your continued support and feedback. If you have any questions or encounter any issues, please do not hesitate to contact our support team.
